Drown

I am being pulled down
Into the abyss
The decay is killing me
I cannot breathe
The downward spiral
Pulling me in
Deeper
But I
I might be dead before
I drown
So dead within
All the miseries
All the pain
All the misbegotten legacies
All the screaming
All the things I didn't do
All the things I did
Made of flaw
King of sorrow
Made to sin
Born to die
From the first breath
I've been crying
Can't take in the air
In the depths
Of my own
Toxic spillage
Within this frame
Of flesh and meat
